Jo was refreshingly old fashioned. In her marriage and communicating with people around her. Her nick name was Auntie Jo then Mamma Jo as she grew older. On the road she was the one they went to when hurt, when they had a problem, or just needed someone to talk to. She'd fix em up, tell them to suck it up and do what you had to.
